High Id without using a router
« on: December 21, 2006, 12:28:01 AM »

I can't get a high Id. Or at least I don't know how to get it. I'm running amule on a MAC OS X.
I'm connected to the internet just trough a cable, ASDL I think. I'm not using a router.
I think I may have a static IP address but I'm not sure.

My question is, can I get a high Id without a router at all ?

Thanks
J

this:
______

Error: TCP port 4662 is unavailable. Make sure your firewall or router is allowing/forwarding this TCP service port and your ED2K client is running (i.e. aMule, eMule).
Detailed Error Message
TCP Error 110 Connection refused

Explanation
The connection timed out, meaning the port is being blocked or incorrectly forwarded by a firewall or your computer is turned off :)

Your public address is port527.ds1-ynoe.adsl.cybercity.dk (217.157.176.158)

_______

I've been to the Firewall setup to allow incoming information through TCP port 4662.

I'm a bit blank. Appreciate your help.

I assume you had aMule running while you did the test, right?

Did you double check that the client tcp port is indeed set to 4662 in preferences->connection? If you did and it still does not work, you could try changing the port to a random number between 2000 and 10000 (in both aMule and your firewall). Some providers block the standard 4662 port.

If it still does not work, my bet would be that your provider blocks ed2k traffic.
